2019-08-29 - Fear, the Mindkiller

Fear. It's a powerful thing. It can propel a person into reckless action, or blind them to less obvious -- but perhaps more insidious -- danger. Hell, sometimes the fear sets up shop, builds a house. It becomes something that's part of every moment, part of you.

Gray Harbor scares Greg. Felix fucking scares Greg shitless. He would run, if there was anywhere to go -- if he believed for half a minute that he'd make it the first mile before the Boss had him run down like an animal.

So... what do you do about the fear? When you can't get away from it, and you feel it creeping in, oppressive? Shit... you face it. You put your head down, maybe snort an oxy, and fucking get yourself ready to fight. In a shitty, unremarkable trailer out at Huckleberry, one Greg Sumpter begins to do just that.

Whatever brought it on, wherever it came from, Greg leans into the blossoming awareness of something different, something new, about him. Surrounded by the makings of a non-traditional yet very promising house warming soon to be enjoyed, this frightened young man begins flexing new muscles, testing and probing the limits of his abilities. He will not be caught unprepared.

What could go wrong?
